"You can go into any store in
town today and tomorrow and
have a big time." Those were the
words of Milton of Milton's Cloth
ing Cupboard yesterday after
noon on the eve of the second an
nual "Spring Swing."
Sponsored by the Chapel Hill-Carrboro-
Merchant's Association,
the "Spring Swing" promises to
be one of the leading days for
both students and businessmen
financially speaking.
Most stores will stay open un-
1 til 9 o'clock tonight specifically
for this occasion. At 8 p.m. there
will be a concert to be held in
Franklin Street. Then, from 8:30
until 10 p.m. there will be "danc
ing in the streets" to the sounds
of the Sam Atwater combo from
Durham.
Milton said, "this is the first
time that we have ever had any
thing such as dancing in the street
and we are all very enthusiastic
about its prospect. Our only hope
is that it won't rain."
All of the merchants will have
"Spring Swing Specials" which
are featuring great reductions in
the retail price of their articles.
Many of them will be below whole
sale and students are expected to
make a "real haul" over the two
day period.
The "Spring Swing" was held
in March of last year, but it was
decided to put it off until April
this year because of cold weather.
Over $150 has been alloted by
the Merchant's Association to cov
er the expense of the combo and
win
other sidelights.
Milton called last year's affair
"well received" and said that the
store owners are "going all the
way this year" to show their ap
preciation to the students for their

Commenting on this phase of the
poll, chairman Jan Cobbs of the
Polls Committee stated yesterday,
"last year over 80 per cent of the
students indicated they would up
hold the principles of lthe Honor
Code.
"This poll shows that 48.4 per cent
of the student body would not turn

standing on othe part of the stu

principles and the student duty to

Taken from the play of Sopho
cles the story of "Antigone" is

Polynices, who led a revolt against
the city.
Antigone disregards her uncles'
orders and buries her brother.
! Caught bv the guards she is
brought before the king, who of
fers her clemency if she will be
silent. Her decision starts a chain
of events which results in deep
tragedy for all involved.
The role of Antigone will be
played by Amanda Meiggs. Creon
will be played by William Dixoi
and the Chorus will be Taylor Wil
liams. Others in the cast are Ken
neth Callender, Carolyn Marsh,
Harold Williamson, Lucy Ann Dun
